Can't install.. package missing
#1
I may be dense but I've followed all the instructions and I'm getting this

W: Failed to fetch http://mirrors.xmbc.org/apt/atv2/./Packages.gz HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found


any ideas??

And you are following the instructions at
http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Ins...MC_on_ATV2

There have been other instructions posted around the web that aren't always complete/correct.

Looks like a trailing space is missing, check this line:

$ echo "deb http://mirrors.xbmc.org/apt/atv2 ./" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xbmc.list

Note that there is a space after the atv2...do a cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/XBMC.list to compare

If you go to the source, there is no packages.gz but packages.bz2 instead

I also got the same problem even I have made sure there is a space between /atv2 and ./ and repeated the procedures many times.

Any other installation method ? Where do the apt-update put these installation files to ? I may try to do manual download and execute the packages which I am not familiar with the right command format.

Alternative method?
Go to http://mirrors.xbmc.org/apt/atv2/deb/ , dowload the .deb for the latest version and copy it to your atv2 (with filezilla or winscp for example).
Then ssh into your atv2, go to the folder where you put the .deb
Enter "dpgk -i <filename of .deb you copied>"

But I wouldn't recommend doing it this way, because to upgrade, you'd have to do this everytime, instead of just a simple "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade"
